Favourites: Paul ‘Man’ Silvester

Share

Yorkshire export and now full time Scotland resident Paul ‘Man’ Silvester took some time out from his hectic schedule as a Radworx skateboard instructor to fill us in on his ‘favourites’ this week, which can now be read below.

Also, as an added bonus, Man has hooked us up with his section from a never properly released 1996 Leeds scene video, which can be found underneath. Some of the footage was reused in Viewfinder 1, but the most part of it is unseen. Enjoy…

Favourite:

Way to start the day: Cup o’ Yorkshire tea and toast.

Skatespot: Uni Banks in Leeds. Not had a chance to session them for a while.

Skatepark: There’s loads of new ones just been built I’d like to session, but will have to go with Hyde Park for the locals that are always a laugh to be around.

Skate video: That new Nike one was good, apart form the setup smashing windows and shit.

Board, ever: Harry bastard bomber board with the spider on it. His girlfriend did the graphic (now wife, Sal) the shape was amazing. Unfortunately I left the last one that was in stock on a train in Birmingham at the start of a Dope tour, gutted. Donny Barley, Toy Machine “Smoker” board was pretty sick.

Disturbing experience: A kid taking part in Radworx the other day saying he had swine flue five weeks ago. To find out later on he got it wrong and was meant to be staying home for the next five weeks. Cheers.
